Verge Permaculture Design Course

It’s Javan here; hope you’ve been reading, learning and listening to what’s currently happening in our world and you are ready to take action.

For thousands of students around the world, completing a Permaculture Design Course is a pivotal step from feeling helpless and depressed about the state of the world to seeing an opportunity in crisis – being an agent of positive change.

And that’s not just an agent of change for themselves, but for their family, community and world at large.

This year I’m collaborating with Rob and Michelle Avis on two of their residential Permaculture Design Certificate Courses in Invermere, BC. After witnessing their PDC last year I can say I was duly impressed with their technical mastery of the permaculture curriculum and the substantial amount they’ve added with regional specifics to make your education as tailored as possible.

It’s a high level, in person, exceptionally well present course.

And I’d know, I’ve been involved in over 30 PDC’s.

Rob and Michelle have three ways to take their PDC: from their Foundational and Premium and Professional Package. The later provides exceptional one-on-one business coaching and development. At any level, their PDC is geared towards the person who’s finished with supporting a culture that degrades our world, and ready to make permaculture a part of their life.

For you, the Permaculture BC supporter, I have another leg up for you in additional savings on the three package levels.

Enter the codes below during your registration process and you’ll add these savings to your enrollment. Just another way to help you get into action with some of the best education available.

Become a Permaculture Change Agent for Your Community in Just 2 Weeks in a Superior Permaculture Design Certificate (PDC) Course Taught by Engineers for Visionary Professionals.

What makes our PDC unique?

We’re engineers and consultants: and we mean business! Our teaching style draws from our real-world business experience – and is geared to ambitious, focused professionals and entrepreneurs.

Bonus intro course: our 3.5 hour video intro course (available immediately upon registration) means students arrive ready to hit the ground running, and we have more hands-on time in the classroom to practice and apply the most advanced concepts.Check out the first 30 minutes of the course below:

Focus on design: With extra classroom time devoted to hands-on design application, our students leave with the confidence to launch their own permaculture projects and careers (plus infinite ideas for what those projects might be).

PDC roadmap: beyond the info-dense web of concepts and techniques of the standardized PDC, we’ve also pioneered a simple, step-by-step design process that students can take-away and apply to just about any permaculture problem. Talk about getting a head start!

And so much more: check out the “What Makes Us Unique” tab for even more reasons our PDC stands apart from the crowd.

Even the most gung-ho advocates for going green are realizing that the small, simple steps – curly light bulbs, tankless water heaters, and reusable bags – don’t even begin to touch the profound challenges we’re facing now…

If you’re mind-boggled by the sheer range of these permaculture solutions – so were we!

As engineers, we’re accustomed to taking a laser-focused approach to problems within complex human-made systems. And we know from experience that you could spend years of study, and a fortune in tuition, learning how to develop targeted technological solutions for our environmental challenges.

But experience has also taught us that those limited solutions won’t even begin to touch the full range of issues we face…and may even make them worse.

Why? Here’s the difference: The planet isn’t a machine…it’s a complex web of interdependent living systems, and far more than the sum of its parts.

So to solve the problems at their root, you need to understand how the system works as a whole:

how to observe and understand natural patterns and processes…

how to design and support sustainable, self-regenerating systems.…

how to intervene when something goes wrong…

how to create a household…a neighbourhood…a community…a local economy…and a culture that exists in harmony with the natural world.

And that’s when you can make really profound changes happen!

This is the holistic approach you’ll begin to learn in Verge’s PDC. For a tiny fraction of what it would cost to earn a conventional environmental degree elsewhere, you’ll discover the secrets that keep a healthy ecosystem and society thriving…and learn how you can use those secrets to create a successful, regenerative business, empower your community and “green” your world in ways you never imagined!

Grads Say:

“Thank you for the density of vital information for creating resilient communities. Thank you for the inspiration to find innovative opportunities for right livelihood, positive creation, earth repair…and true happiness! Thank you for the introduction to a vital, vibrant community.”

If you’re looking for a springboard into a new business or career – one that can make the crucial difference for you, your community, and the planet in the hard times that are approaching –this is the course to take.

Don’t spend another day in frustration and outrage at the dire headlines. Sign up today, and take your first step toward becoming a permaculture change agent.
